Former Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi has congratulated President Bola Tinubu on his victory at the Supreme Court, stating that the affirmation by the apex court was a demonstration of the principles of fairness and justice.
According to a statement by the Head of Fayemi Media Office, Mallam Ahmad Sajoh, the former governor said that the victory has further validated President Tinubu’s win at the polls, which was a testament to the faith Nigerians have in the All Progressives Congress, and in the President’s ability to steer the ship of the state.
‘’In celebrating the President’s victory, we must also be mindful of the need to avoid triumphalism”, Fayemi said, while acknowledging the importance of running an inclusive government and urged President Tinubu to embrace the spirit of inclusivity by reaching out to his political competitors and fostering an atmosphere of unity
He argued that, in a democracy, the success of one political party should not necessarily be seen as a defeat for others but as an opportunity to work together for the greater good of the country. He therefore urged the appellants to embrace the President in the onerous task of governing Nigeria so as to avoid all distractions.
“All hands must be on deck at this moment. As we move forward, it is essential that we prioritise the development, security, and prosperity of Nigeria above all else. I urge the President to use his victory as an opportunity to heal the divisions in our country and to build a more prosperous and inclusive Nigeria for all”, he said.
